DAY 3

Tues Jan 13 Day 3

Up Up & Away - - almost.  We pulled out of Camping World Burlington at 38095 miles at 0920.  At 1:55 we stopped at the Flying J in northern Oregon @ 38354 & filled up for $2.009 a gallon. The instruments said it would be 580 miles to empty.  We stopped at their Subway & split a foot long and a drink, plus we got 60 cents off with my Flying J charge card and didn’t even have to charge it, we paid cash. We left the station at 2:50 the straight down I 5 to Seven Feathers Casino RV Park.  We arrived at 5:35 @ 38533 miles. We covered 179 miles in 2 hrs 45 minutes that’s an ave speed of 65 mph, no bad for a giant brick wall going up & down hills and passing trucks like crazy.

I suppose I have to mention one minor incident while going through Seattle.  I was approaching the express lane entrance driving into the bright sun which came between the sun visors and was hitting the mirrors and the window.  I started to move over and there was a minor bump and I barley touched a car in the lane beside me.  We pulled over & exchanged insurance details Very minimal damage, mostly some minor paint scrapes on her car on the rear fender. I haven’t had time in daylight to check out the RV. It was on the hwy side in Seattle and I forgot at the gas station and it was dark when we got camped again.
